So I heard there was a QR code on the back of the Nexus One, but all the early photos obscured it. Well, today I finally got a scan of the code, and (not surprisingly, given the fact that it was the Google Christmas gift) it reads: www.android.com/holidays
If you visit that URL from any browser, you'll just be taken to the Android site. However, if you visit it from a Nexus One, you're taken to a themed memory game. (More on that here: phandroid.com/2009/12/15/nexus-one-holiday-memory-... ). That's it!

The QR code on the back of the Nexus One
From the linked article:
Oh, and by the way, the browser can tell if you’re using a Nexus One only based on the User Agent Profile which is easily spoofed. Long story short: some tweaking and you can play the holiday memory game yourself.
* Safari 4 – with developer tools enabled, go to Develop -> User Agent -> Other and type ‘Nexus One’ in the box.
* Firefox – type ‘about:config’ in the address bar and filtering on ‘useragent’ and setting it there. It’s apparently not quite as easy to do with the Chrome dev tools.
* Firefox method 2 (AG) – Use the User Agent Switcher extension
* Chrome – SOL
Seems like Google is looking to expand on Web Apps.
